Jacob David Bridges, 29, of Tampa, Florida, passed away on June 5, 2023, surrounded by loved ones. Jacob was born in Tampa, Florida on September 14, 1993, to David and Mimi Bridges. He was a fun-loving, gentle, kind, hard-working, charismatic, and passionate person who always put a smile on everyone's face. He never met a stranger and was always an encourager to those around him. He had a witty and thoughtful personality that made him a joy to be around.

Jacob was a graduate of Zephyrhills High School and went on to become a Pipe Fitter and Welder with Mechanical Industrial Conveyor Services, Inc. He was a skilled professional who took pride in his work and was respected by his colleagues.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents Nellie and Fred Vegas.

A Celebration of Life will be held in honor of Jacob on June 16, 2023, from 4 pm to 8 pm, at 38210 Vinson Ave Zephyrhills, Florida 33542.

Jacob will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His infectious smile and kind heart will forever be remembered.

My beautiful baby boy;
My words won't bring you back I know because I tried.
Neither will my tears that I've cried. My heart is broken you took a piece with you. Titi loves you!

Thoughts on losing Jake: three are no words to soothe this pain. Only time will serve to soften its sharp edges. As we stroke the wound leftby this loss with our grieving, let us keep our hearts open to the lovies who are still with us; and let us open our eyes to the days ahead and the blue skies, as if Jake could see them. We must look and see for him now, and for ourselves.

Once our grief has subsided, may our eyes turn to the skies and our spirits not fall like our tears. The Phoenix of our sadness may haunt us, but we may also renew ourselves, if we remember to live for those who remain and those who have moved on.

I realize condolences can do little to ease a broken heart and this may be just one thing the heart never recovers from, but I offer them anyway. Jake was a beautiful young man who obviously shared a warm, loving relationship with his many friends and family. He won´t be forgotten. Jake will always live in our hearts because hearts never forget. Someone said that grief never really leaves us. The pain is always there, we just somehow have to find a way to live alongside it.

My heart goes out to David and Mimi. Jake was such a nice kid. He was my sons Will Rivas’ best friend while in high school. He was at my house or Will was at his house everyday. Condolences to all his loved ones.

The love I devolved for Jacob when I was 17 never left my heart. For many years, I tried not to think about how much I loved him but if you know him, you´d know he´s impossible to forget. My memories and love for him will last a lifetime. My Jacob
